ITEM NUMBER: RA B-1
DATE: 02/28/06
Community Redevelopment Agency of Atascadero
Staff Report - Executive Director
Budget Amendment
RECOMMENDATION:
The City's Finance Committee recommends that the Agency Board reallocate $50,000
CDBG funds in the 2005-06 fiscal year and $50,000 of Redevelopment Agency funds in
.-. the 2006-07 fiscal year from the Fagade Improvement Project to Downtown Street
Lighting.
DISCUSSION:
The Finance Committee, in their annual review of CDBG project applications, reviewed
the Fagade Improvement Program and the Downtown Street Lighting project, both of
which are partly funded by CDBG. The Committee noted that Downtown Street lighting
was a high priority and discussed focusing the available resources on implementation.
The Lighting Program and Fagade Program are both funded $50,000 each year of the
two year budget. The Committee recommended combining the funds to focus Agency
efforts on the Lighting Program and temporarily put the Fagade Program on hold.
Staff has been reviewing street light locations and has requested PG&E to evaluate and
respond to a program on placing new street lights in the downtown and a potential loan
program. The proposal contemplates installation of new lights and a program where
PG&E installs the lighting and the Agency repay the cost over the next several years.
Focusing Agency resources on the Lighting Project would allow it to proceed quicker.
ALTERNATIVES:
Agency Board could retain the current program of projects keeping both the Fagade
Improvement Project and the Downtown Street Lighting at the current $50,000 per year
funding level.
